This paper is all about the rocket engine involving the use of A cryogenic rocket engine is a rocket engine that cryogenic technology at a cryogenic temperature (123K). This uses a cryogenic fuel or oxidizer, that is, its fuel or basically uses the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen as an oxidizer (or both) is gases liquefied and stored at oxidizer and fuel, which are very clean and non-pollutant very low temperatures. Notably, these engines were fuels compared to other hydrocarbon fuels like petrol, diesel, one of the main factors of the ultimate success in gasoline, LPG, CNG, etc., sometimes, liquid nitrogen is also reaching the Moon by the Saturn V rocket. used as an fuel. During World War II, when powerful rocket engines were first considered by the German, American and Keywords Soviet engineers independently, all discovered that Rocket engine, Cryogenic technology, Cryogenic temperature, rocket engines need high mass flow rate of both Liquid hydrogen and Oxygen. oxidizer and fuel to generate a sufficient thrust. At that time oxygen and low molecular weight 1.
